I don’t buy that he cares. Patreon is profitable. He doesn’t have to fire anyone to continue operations. He just wants more money. If he cared about them as beautiful people, he wo…

I had a prius and every time I started it up, it would display a big warning prompt that blocked out the rear view camera. So you had to tap ok before backing up. Every time. My cu…

Tesla operates vehicles for $100/month. I’m guessing whatever cloud ai this thing needs is less complicated and less money.
